(photo courtesy of www.sephora.com)I am a big fan of the SEPHORA Collection line. What I like about the products is that they are top of the line. All of the products that come from the line are made with cutting edge ingredients and use some of the latest technology that cosmetic chemists have available to them.

SEPHORA Collection Cream Lip Stain is one of those products. This amazing lip stain comes in a rainbow of 14 new shades, some of which are cult favorites. This exceptional cream lip stain glides on the lips like a dream but dries to a long-wearing matte finish. It provides beautiful, long-lasting color with a high-coverage stain. Avocado oil is featured for a texture that transforms as you wear it. When you first apply it the initial cream texture becomes a silky, lightweight stain. Lips then achieve a stunning color that will feel soft and comfortable instead of dry and taught. It is available in a variety of shades that are both matte and satin. Color stays put for a very long time and even through eating. New shades include: Always Red, Peach Tart, Strawberry Kissed, Coral Crush, Infinite Rose, Pink Soufflé, Cherry Blossom, Whipped Blush, Watermelon Slice, Mandarin Muse, African Violet, Marvelous Mauve, Blackberry Sorbet and Polished Purple.

I tried out Marvelous Mauve. It does immediately go on as a thicker cream and then transforms to a matte finish. The formula dries quickly, but not so quick as to ruin the look of your lips should you have not liked where you put the color. Once dry it does not budge. Even through eating regular food. Now, if you eat something oily the color will come off. That is normal with even the hardiest of lip stains and long-wearing lip colors. I like that this feels good on the lips, not dry. The avocado oil in it keeps lips from feeling like sandpaper after a few hours. I also like all of the colors that are available. Marvelous Mauve is a good MarsalaPANTONE 18-1438 shade that goes with all of the Color of the Year products. It looks good on just about anyone and is a good neutral shade.
